Talking in three steps
Pick your languages
Set “I speak” and “Other person speaks” once. Dolmo remembers your choice.
Flip the switch up
The red light on the microphone glows: Dolmo is listening. With headphones, or in table mode without any.

Just talk
Both directions run in one conversation. Dolmo detects the language and sends every translation to the right place.
For conversations that matter
Six topics bring the right vocabulary. Add names and your own terms yourself.
Family & everyday life
Talk with in-laws, grandchildren and relatives without anyone having to translate.
Doctor & care
Describe symptoms and understand instructions, at the practice or in home care.
Authorities & housing
Appointments, leases, apartment handovers: the terms come out right.
Banking & finance
Accounts, loans, transfers: conversations at the counter without misunderstandings.
Trades & construction
Agree clearly with clients and crew on site about what needs doing.
Hotels & restaurants
Welcome, advise and serve guests from all over the world.
And when travelling: ask for directions, order, check in.
What makes Dolmo different
Voice, not text
The translation is spoken into your ear, with AirPods or any other Bluetooth headphones. Your eyes stay on the person, not the screen.
Both directions at once
The other person hears your reply in their language from the iPhone speaker. Nobody passes the phone back and forth.
Table mode, no headphones
Put the iPhone on the table: both languages play from the speaker, and the microphone pauses while Dolmo talks.
Vocabulary
Topics for doctors, banks, authorities, building sites and hotels. “term = translation” fixes how a word is translated.
Every person, their own voice
When several people talk at the table, Dolmo tells who is speaking and gives each person a different voice, male or female depending on their pitch. So even in your headphones you know who said what.

Frequently asked questions
Which languages does Dolmo support?
60 languages in any combination – including English, German, Czech, Polish, Slovak, Ukrainian, Russian, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Croatian, Serbian, Romanian, Hungarian, Turkish, Arabic, Persian and Chinese.
Do I need AirPods?
No. Dolmo works with AirPods and any other Bluetooth headphones. Without headphones, turn on table mode and both languages play from the iPhone speaker.
Does Dolmo work offline?
No. Recognition, translation and voice run on the Soniox speech service, so Dolmo needs Wi-Fi or mobile data.
Is my conversation stored?
No. Audio is only sent while the switch is up, and only after you agree. Neither Dolmo nor Soniox stores recordings. The transcript lives only in the iPhone’s memory and is gone when you switch off.
How fast is the translation?
In our measurements on an iPhone 15, the translated sentence played about 0.7 seconds after the end of the sentence. The first words appear while the person is still speaking.
What does Dolmo cost?
The first 30 minutes are free. After that, talk time comes in packs of 2, 5 or 20 hours (CHF 9, 19 and 59 in Switzerland; the App Store shows your local price). There is no subscription and no account.
Which iPhones are supported?
Any iPhone running iOS 26.6 or later. Apple Intelligence is not required.
Can several people talk at once?
Yes. Dolmo tells up to 15 people apart and gives each one their own voice.
Is there a business version?
Yes, we offer business licences for care, trades, hotels and public offices. Write to tech@stonedesign.pro.
